If that is true...then that ain't luck...he's just dang good with a pistol...great actually.
I always did, but I can't speak for other officersWhat happens if the old fellow had a dissability and handcuffing him would have caused a severe injury. Do they take that into account, or does everyone get the same treatment,
The responding officers likely were not in direct contact with that officer, I would think he was most concerned with the shooter (who hadn't yet been confirmed as no longer a threat) and any accomplices still outstandingand why didn't the officer say this man just saved my life, don't you dare push him dowm in the dirt ike that,
I haven't heard anything about the officers knowing that this guy had even helped the initial officer until after they had secured the scene and the downed suspect...we usually cuff non-responsive suspects.Could they at least have cuffed himin front and had him sit in the patrol car until they sorted this out, or is everyone there just oblvious to te fact that the guy saved one of their own.
In the video the citizen said it was a good 165 yards from where he was standing.Dunno where the 165 yards came from... it was more like 50 yards.. ?
But glad he was there.. Sgt got to go home to his wife and kids..

More like 50 yards.. still a good shot and he probably did save some lives..

Thanks. That makes a great deal more sense than 165...but it was sure fun to believe for a little while!I was asking about the distance as well, I sent an email to the Chief over the Sgt and asked him what the distance was.
he replied, about 50 yards.
That is an absolute true-ism!This is the total defnition of "LUCK"
